My advice to anyone who consumes vitamins and other supplements is to ask your family doctor for specific recommendations tailored to your own health that are informed by reliable and reproducible science like blood tests.

My hope is that Health Canada will improve public policies to require that all claims of efficacy for vitamin and supplement products be supported by peer-reviewed scientific studies.
